Last spring, my rescue dog Kira had a rough bout of digestive upset. After a few vet visits and trying different commercial treats, I decided to go the homemade route. I wanted something simple, nourishing, and tummy-friendly. When I blended ripe bananas with xylitol-free peanut butter and oats, Kira went crazy for them. Now they’re her favorite reward after our afternoon walks.

• 
  

  • 1 ripe banana (mashed)

  • 1/2 cup xylitol-free peanut butter (natural & unsweetened)

  • 1 cup rolled oats (blended for smoother texture if desired)

  • 1 egg (for binding)
    
    

Optional add-ins:

• 1 tablespoon plain Greek yogurt

• 1/4 cup canned pumpkin (for extra fiber)

• We sometimes switch it up with these Peanut Butter Applesauce Oat Treats when we run out of bananas.

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a bowl, mash the banana thoroughly.
3. Stir in the peanut butter and egg until smooth.
4. Fold in the oats and any optional add-ins.
5. Scoop small balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or use fun silicone molds .
6. Bake for 15–20 minutes until firm but not hard.
7. Cool completely before serving.
